looks ok, they pretty much look like the turtles, nothing too drastic or dramatic a change. aside from the possible nunchaku omission which IMO is really stupid as it's so much easier to hurt maim of kill someone with the other weapons than a nunchaku. This is something I never understood, even before the rise of TMNT.

It's still too early to tell IMO, but it could be a decent show. I've loved almost every other TMNT show, except the Next Mutation and Fast Foward, so maybe this will be on par with the early 2003 show.

Don't mess up TWO-BADD! That's all I ask!

And behold, I will be a blight upon the land and everything I touch shall wither and die. I shall reign in 2012 for my conquest is nigh.

I must say, I’m not a huge fan of that style. Obviously you can’t judge the whole series on this piece alone, but I just personally don’t like the look of the characters. I’m more interested in the new film, anyway.

Don't see as much hype about this as say.. the Thundercats. Maybe it's too soon for a reboot? I'm interested to see what they do. I loved Turtles Forever. I've caught a few episodes of the 200X TMNT.. and I haven't watched the old school cartoons in forever.. but have enjoyed the movies again recently. I also need to watch the latest TMNT movie in CGI, to which this picture reminds me of the most.

Eh, I'll play new video games if they make any because they are always fun. However, the only TMNT I can watch is the original cartoon series and the first 2 movies. Hopefully they can make some cool figures.

They're doing it again? Interesting. Well, the designs are pretty standard, but they've got a classic comic vibe which is pretty cool. Looking forward to toys, if they can learn to put in some decent articulation.

Alexx has a blog?! Come on in and check out Toys and Tomfoolery! You won't regret it...until the next morning.

Not to sound like a creepy cheerleader for Uki, but it's nice to know there is at least one person on this forum who is extremely positive & friendly all the time. I don't think I could be that nice even if you paid me. If we ever give out awards for "forum member of the month", Uki gets my vote. -Mr. Shokoti

Why don't they give Don a spear while we're at it! Cause everyone knows that a bladed weapon is safer than a bo staff or nuchucks...

Nunchaku generate enough force that they can shatter bones. Not break, SHATTER!
And if they can shatter bones, I cringe to think of what they could do to organs.
They can also, it seems, be used as a strangulation weapon (the reason why they are illegal in germany).
Not to mention it takes tremendous skill to wield a Nunchaku. If not wielded properly the wielder can end up hurting himself.
Nunchakus are far more than just two sticks with a chain. They are deadly in many ways.

Fictional characters are just that. Fictional. They have no personality or free will of their own.
Writers and editors mold them to their own wants and needs.
All we as the audience and fans can do is pick and choose our favorite interpretation and ignore the rest.

much easier to kill someone or yourself with a gun or a sai than a nunchaku. yes it takes tremendous skill to use and it's that skill that is needed to generate bone shattered strength. Swords Sai's and bo staffs take skill too and can strangle kill maim any weapon is dangerous in the wrong or right hands. and the Kusari-gamar as pointed is is much more dangerous and way easier to seriously hurt yourself with than nunchaku

Katana can cut your head off.
Being hit by a bo on the head can give you potentially lethal concussion.
And sai's can rip your eyes out and turn your kidneys into Swiss cheese.

Yeah I honestly don't understand the laws regarding this, esp in the US the right to bear arms is always a gun rights issue and not katanas sais nunchaku etc. those weapons can be banned with no backlash but guns, that is sacred. arms is weapons period isn't it?

People also tend to forget the well regulated portion, but you are right in that it tends to be mainly a concern in regards to firearms. Even wikipedia says it's short for armaments then redirects to weapons which include non firearms.

Still I found it odd that, it was OK for Leonardo to put his katana through what he thought was Splinter to save his life, yet One Piece had all guns turned into pop/cork guns. And these were shown back to back.

As far as the picture it's just that in fact it's more of a poster and those tend to be not entirely accurate. I wasn't particularly fond of the early art for Spectacular Spider-man then I saw it in motion and loved the show.
